The doctor and his staff were very helpful and kind. They explained what was going to happen and guided me through the appointment nicely. The wait time was a bit - over 90 minutes from walking in until walking out. Butthat did include onsite X-rays prior to seeing the doctor, which was great.

I would never go back to this office. It was mayhem in the waiting room and they were so rude. The dr did nothing for me I had to see another doctor who actually treated my problem. Waste of time ( 2 hours) and a copay.

Dr. Schwartz was pleasant. My treatment seems appropriate thus far. The waiting room and length of the wait was unacceptable. It seems there were 4 patients booked at the same time as my appointment. I waited for 45+ minutes. I willnot do that again should the waiting room be as hectic as it was this time.
